Legalize marijuana. Not because of what people want or think they need; it may be the key to improving U.S economy.

Many people want to have weed (marijuana) legalized because of the "high". However, we are not here to support the negative nor positive feel smoking marijuana can bring, but to have the U.S government consider the legalization of weed for 3 main reasons; the improvement of the economy- Marijuana could be taxed hard and still be bought, this would generate more money in taxes for the government. Also, less people would be placed in jail/prison- this would save the government money by not having to use tax money to support the lives of people convicted of possession. And for 3- being drunk and being "high" is not the same exact effect, but they both are used. Plus, most people when drunk go crazy and want to fight or end up killing people while drunk driving- what's so much better?
